nicknames: b...beeker...bucket...beezer...bucky
you are in a serious mama phase. you only want mama preparing your food, giving you a bath, changing your diaper, putting you down to sleep. i basically have to hide if somebody else is going to help with anything. "no! mama!!!" is your phrase of choice these days. i'm trying to appreciate it, and i will surely remind you of these days when you are a punk teenager who can't get far enough away from his mom.
you have a pretty bad chocolate milk addiction. you went from hating milk and most dairy products in general to having a deep love for "choc-ie" as you call it. we cut it with a lot of regular milk so it's not so terrible for you, and you can't get enough. the other day you drank the last of the chocolate milk we had and asked for more. i told you we were all out, but i could get you some juice or water. you put the empty cup in my hand, looked me in the eyes, and said "mama. listen. more chooooooc-ieeee please."
you are getting crazy with your imaginative play. you play with baby dolls all day long at the sigl's house. you feed them and put them to bed and soothe them when they cry. for some reason your babies cry a lot. you spend a lot of time rocking them and telling them, "shhhhh. okay baby okay." you build houses with your blocks for your farm animals, you have lots of conversations on the phone (anything can be a phone), and you do a lot of fake cooking. watching your little brain at work while you play is the cutest thing in the history of things.
you no longer nurse and you go to bed awake. dad has taken over the bed time routine and you read stories and then have precious adorable cuddle time together before bed. you are a serious snuggler. i will be very sad when those days are over. also... you have started calling yourself bucket.
How I love that he calls himself "bucket" :-)
